Take cars off the card without damaging it?? What magic is this? 😆 Another good video. Nice comparisons.

I have been amazed that I have just come across you as a custom/resto guy. I think many would agree that doing a Hotwheels Flatout 442 would make our day. Great work by the way!!

Can't wait for the custom on the cool combis!

Great info video!! Always enjoy watching your channel!!

It has to be said. I am really excited on every new video that you upload. The Thumbnails look great, your work is remarkable and I am actually hoping for the video to be as long as possible. Glad I subscribed and have a nice weekend!

What a wonderfully informative and extremely helpful video, needing to strip back the paint on a 1/50 scale truck i decided to go with the diall paint and varnish remover and i have to say im delighted with the result, stripped totally clean using the same method that you used soaking it for 1-2 hours , thank you !

Another excellent informative vid, thank you very much for making and sharing this.

Interesting video, thanks for taking the time to film and share with us all 👍

Dunno if you have Easy-off oven cleaner in England, but it also do the trick. That's what I use for my model kits.

Hi, thanks for the video. If you're not in a hurry I've found Dettol disinfectant to be a wonderful paint stripper. I used it on plastic models and it stripped the paint away and didn't harm the plastic. I had a couple of diecast vehicles to strip down and it worked on those too. I usually leave them overnight so, like I say, it's not a fast method. I was quite sceptical when I was first told about this but I gave it a try and it worked. What's more you can use it time and time again.. Hope you don't mind me mentioning it. Thanks again

I love those little wire wheels but they are the worst for shedding tiny sharp bits of wire that end up on the floor / sticking into your toes if you ever go stocking-feet or barefoot. Great vid!

A very useful and informative how to.

Good comparison. I've noticed when Rob (of Matchbox Garage) uses his caustic soda, it immediately starts boiling up in the jar. I like the gel type used in a small tub, immersing the body in it while it works.

Very interesting. I was always a fan of Nitromors until a few years ago when Dichloromethane was banned and it became less effective. I have used a couple of own brand strippers and found them to be near useless, but it seems the Diall stuff is a hidden gem. I will get off to B&Q in the morning! I have been tempted to try Caustic Soda after watching Matchbox Garage, but, like yourself, I'm not keen on its volatility. Certainly some food for thought there. As always, thanks for sharing your experience.

Thanks for another very informative video!

nice comparison, appreciated.

Can you please do a video on HOW TO swap wheels and create all the posts and axels. Thank you. Really enjoy your channel.

Thanks for sharing friend. You have some way to clean the blister or bubble, when it is removed without the use of acetone and remains of the card.

Thanks for the tip on the Diall paint remover I finally got around to getting some after watching this video a few weeks ago, and as you say if your patient it works like a dream. I left a casting in it over night and this morning there was not a spot of paint left on it. Even a couple of hours is enough to get most castings clean, but I would recommend the over night treatment as bes option. Bought a 2.5Ltr container for just under £15 and with use of a glass jar and Time Riders Primordial Oose it should last me an age. Will keep some Caustic as backup as I still have half a packet, but if it continues to work as good I can see me sticking to this long term.

Vídeo comparação muito bem feito!

great demo, thanks!

So it's not jizz I am convinced now xD it's almost like you made the video just to prove me wrong, good work as always man keep the vids coming

What kind of glue do you glue the box with the card later so that the glue is not visible like the original one?

Hi , excellent class !!!!!!!!! .

I wondered if you could use old chip oil

I just use a wire brush on the end of a drill and that works perfectly fine, I do wanna try the paint remover though.

i miss you try with mini sand blast., greetings from MEXICO CITY SALUDOS CARNAL, DE AQUÍ DE LA CIUDAD DE MEXICO... THIS IS MI LIKE

What is that blue stuff you use to peel ?

Nitro Mors is pricey AF used a lot when re-decorating but didn't find it very consistent,.Costic Soda i would reckon would be the best bet as long as you use your nut,health & safety etc.

Another answer there for me .great vid..how do you re attach once you have drilled out the pressings that hold them all together.thanks TTV

Thanks I needed this. I’ve successfully stripped (and then accidentally ruined) two cars with the first method now. This third one is from the 70’s and laughs at my pathetic paint stripper. So yeah thanks!

Nice mate I learned a lot here

Another great video, what makes it better is that my Mother in law works at b&q so I can get discount, lol. Going back to your making your own decals, may I ask what printer you have because the detail of your decals are amazing where mine is pretty poor.

Weird, i just use acetone in a glass jar to strip paint off mine. Can take a while depending on what sort of paint is on there but im not in much of a hurry.

Ahh this video was for me LOL 😀👍 love your videos, love this hobby now Thanks to You, would love to send you some pics as to how my first project is going along, maybe an Instagram or Facebook page ? I'll find it 😉 I did find tho, that some elbow grease and little water paper aka emerey paper(think that's how it's spelt) worked for My scenario, but I am definitely gonna get some paint and varnish remover. Also saw some comments about brake fluid and then some about oven cleaner, will experiment and hopefully not land up in hospital 😅 LOVE your videos and Channel as a whole. Would definitely love to build some old school cars with your specific decals. As a Brand, You are Amazing , as a KZfaqr, I'm hooked 😆 Good luck Good Sir

Can we use WD-40 to remove the paint?

Very nice paint remove comparison mate, very helpful! Mmmhh you could try different tunnings or customizing styles on each body? One more like a rat road, 60' style, aged and rusty or some sweet SidewaysKing75 style! Or maybe paint comparison. Cheers :)

I appreciate the comparisons, excellent work. But how does each method work with very old corgi or dinky models? The models shown are fairly new, and as such probably use modern paints. Does the diall stripper work equally well on an early 60’s Corgi Scammell?

Hello mate another interesting video

Thank you for this video, really helpful. Just a little request having learnt from experience, please don’t store your heavy duty gloves inside your mask after handling the caustic soda, it hurts when you get it in your eye and does nothing good for your inside if you breath it in. Anyway off to BnQ then a afternoon off stripping cars. 🙂

Another great vid..jizz it is

Thank you for this in depth video!! Super helpful ☺️ I want to strip the paint off a Welly Volvo but it has a plastic rear window glued into it, so you think the Diall paint and varnish remover would effect this plastic?? Subscribed and looking forward to watching more videos 😁

New vid from one of my favourite youtubers!

nice video

After the brush, how do you clean the goop and excess paint off?

Have you tried electrolysis at all? I am keen to see how that works as I used to electro-clean my old Vespa bits and always got the paint and rust off but wondering with these cars whether it would struggle with small detail.

Can you get Diall in the US? Or is there a state side equivalent that you know of?

Cool

Hi, can you help? I have two green matchbox no 74 green Daimiler buses. They are in great condition but many years ago due to madness, I placed some white gloss numbers on the bottom of the model eg a fleet number. Both have this issue but otherwise in great condition. I am at a loss to know how to remove these white gloss numbers without damaging the paint on the chassis and thus ruining the models. Any ideas?

What you could do with those bodies is make a really stretched out Combie?

Hi, iv been watching your videos for a bit now but just saw your decals video. Just a quick question... What pc do you use/have, you said you use it for work and I'm looking to upgrade my set up. But it's been so long since I had to buy a computer. Thanks and I'm loving the videos ☺

How long can you leave the cars after you strip them of their paint, as in will they oxidize in any way while bare metal?

Great video very informational for me. I’m just graduating from Wheel swaps to customs lol maybe you could do some subscriber give away with the Kool Kombi’s

I went and got a bottle of paint and vanish remover on Monday, and I'm with you I don't like the wire brush either I have them every where and stabbed into my heal and so has my wife and kids

Caustic Soda = Sodium hydroxide , might be more familiar to some under that name. Bombs drainage pipes clear like nothing. BTW @sidewaysking75 what would you use to remove Enamel paint from plastic scale models?

How do I wash the die cast off after getting all the paint off?

I use boiling water with 2 tea spoons in just enough water to cover the casting

Use hot water for caustic soda and the paint is gone in less than a minute!

how to fix rusty wheels? paint?

Have you been on 6Music this morning for RSD? Some bloke sounded exactly like you

Is polishing the car a necessary step in the painting process?

Hey... This time, don't throw it at your neighbors back... 🤣🤣🤣

Worth mentioning that that Diall product is now £6.75!

Any new method? The paint strippers available today are very weak

Put glue around the middle of the little wire router

Took me 2.5 hours to strip the paint off a white with black decal A100 the other day with Nitromorse but you really don’t want it on your skin 😂😂😂 do you know anyone in the UK that does custom decals ?!

Lol I’m not going trying to try the 4th one Because if your do it too fast or not good your gonna scrap it

And here I am using sandpaper and a file.

I use Nitro Universal thinner it's the cheapest thinner that you get in Germany

I never skip ads on your channel (start a Patreon page)

I LOVE,LOVE,LOVE your videos, thanks for sharing. But could you do another video about paint stripping but then with: 1 - A copper wire brush ( as far as i can see you used a metal wire brush this time ? ) 2- Sandblaster: there are small sandblasters the same size as a regular airbrush but with a bigger cup (BD-178 = 21 euro + 1 KG sandblasting material BD-60 = 4 euro see airgoo-europe.com) 3 Laquer thinner 4 Baking soda 5 Carburetor cleaner (spray) 6 A combination ot a (dentist)-scraper for the panel lines + a sanding sponge (Tamiya, 3M or cheapest AmazingArt) I just looked at your video of the Alfa Romeo 155 V6 Ti DTM, fantastic work but why put so much effort into cutting the engine-hood, building an engine, building a rollcage and then do nothing on the windscreen wiper? A bit of masking tape and a bit of paint or a permanent marker! would make a big difference. The same goes for the window frames: make the bottom of the side windows-frame black and the entire window-frames of the front- and rear windows black with either paint or a permanent marker and your cars go up from 9.50 out of 10 to 10 out of 10 ! BTW I love your videos and the choice of cars, I too love race- and rallycars, but i'm more into 1:43 and 1:24. Would you ever consider doing a 1:43 or 1:24? I think about Burago 1:43 + 1:24 Ford Escort RS Cosworth or Ford Focus WRC, 1:43 Solido Lancia 037 Rally, 1:43 CorgiToys SilkCut Jaguar XJR-9 or Ferrari 512 BB LM or ;24 Burago Renault 5 Turbo (re-issue) to name a few. Don't get me wrong i really like your videos, and i learn a lot from you !! I hope you respond. THANK YOU.

Put super glue on the wire brushes at the hub and they last much longer.

I stopped using wire wheels because I don't like eating the wires that leave the brush. LOL

If only I had a drill..
